Grow Your Career

TDL will offer lots of professional development in the coming year. Take a few minutes to plant seeds for furthering your career with these opportunities:

  • Submit a proposal to the Texas Conference on Digital Libraries. TCDL’s theme this year, 2020 Hindsight: Looking Back, Moving Forward, presents an opportunity to pause and reflect on lessons learned from past projects and initiatives, and envision fresh possibilities for the future. We encourage presenters to consider sharing past successes as well as failures that led to unexpected solutions or advice that might benefit the community.
  • Register for TCDL. Our annual conference is a unique occasion: it’s the only conference just for digital libraries in Texas. Registration discounts are offered for TDL members and students.
  • Get ready to grow your leadership skills at the TDL Leadership Academy, facilitated by Breaking Library Silos and The Maintainers. Learn how to lead at all levels of the library and join a cohort of learners who seek a professional community for growth.

The best thing about being a member of Texas Digital Library is that we have a ready-made group of like-minded professionals working toward the same goals. Over the winter break, take a moment to give back by contributing to these initiatives:

From all of us to all of you, TDL wishes everyone a wonderful winter break. See you in 2020!
